"I'll make sure they'll stay out of trouble" lol.
"I definitely knew he traveled, but I didn't know they were going to call it. That was one of them situations in which a great player made a move...and they called the call. And I was like, 'Oh, man, there is a God.'

He's answering questions like he's Marshawn Lynch.

What’s he supposed to say?

‘They’re gonna find out that they can’t play somewhere, may as well be in Lithuania.’

Most of their content is freelance. You catch a celeb, turn on your phone camera, ask a couple of questions, and submit to TMZ.

JV was trained on how to deal with media early. Always says the least controversial thing.

I wonder if those 2 would have been better off signing with a G league team. They'd get to stay in the US and they'd get a lot more publicity.

Maybe no G-League teams wanted them.

They are both very far away from being NBA caliber prospects. LiAngelo will never make the NBA, and LaMelo would have to grow 2-3+ more inches, get a lot stronger, and learn that there's more to the game than chucking 3s, and even then he'd still be a fringe prospect imo

You'd think a team would do it just to sell tickets.

Does G league have an age restriction?

Just checked, G league's age restriction is 18. So only Liangelo could play.

I legitimately did a double take. The real question is: have they ever been seen in the same room at the same time?

super safe country

i wonder what they tell their camara men during TMZ training.. ok you're gonna spot a celeb and just bombard him with useless questions..make you sure you dont trip while walking backwards, and make sure you hover around the celeb like flies on **** in case the celeb gets sidetracked doing somethin important or talks to another fellow celeb
